Gotta love CQ WPX â€" I get the entire  range of human emotions when 
working
this contest like - it's loud,  amazing, incredible, magic, awesome, 
excellent,
remarkable, fabulous,  formidable, laborious, tough, arduous, challenging,
irritating, toilsome,  wearisome, mysterious, marvelous, spooky, weird, 
shrill,
diabolical,  staggering, strange, wondrous, unbelievable, extraordinary,
stupendous,  baffling, great, super, lousy, rotten, noisy, absurd, divine,
enjoyable,  fantastic, peachy, phenomenal, staggering, terrific, tremendous,
amazing,  incredible, sensational, strange, unruly, blaring,  unimaginable,
earsplitting, piercing, booming, bizarre, funny, screwy,  ridiculous, 
unreal,
groovy, ludicrous, freakish, comical, crazy, illusive,  brutal, outstanding,
merciless, rude, vicious, deafening, wild and just all  around fun!
So, pick one of the above and place in front of every  contact, band, hour,
operator, propagation and multiplier and you have the  story of my weekend. 
Nifty events included JA9TQY calling me on 15m about  an hour before JAs 
were
spotted when I was running station on the west  coast. Also, having A71AM
calling me on a short 20m run was a pleasant  surprise. Then on Sunday 
morning
there was an awesome opening to China on  20m where I worked 3 BAs and a YB
(never before, with my 100w).   
Better DX worked included 7Z, 6V, 5W, AH0, KH2, B3, BY4, BY5, 4X,  JA, A6, 
and
4L. The score is a little less than last year; however, I did  work another 
hour
longer last year...so, I'll call it a tie.  Once  again, there was no solid 
Eu
opening on 10m; still, I did work a few folks  from southern Europe. It's 
tough
when you can hear PYs running DL after DL.  Plus, the 15m opening to Japan 
only
produced one JA compared to about 40  last year. 80M was very noisy and 
pretty
much useless for low power.  Otherwise conditions were similar to last year 
and
I didn't have to shut  down for storms.
The station worked great all weekend and WPX is  probably my favorite 
contest.
Thanks to everyone for the contacts and  working to get my exchange.  Lots 
of
QRM and I know there will be  busted contacts.  Also, thanks to CQ and the
contest committee for all  their work.

Best â€" Jere
